Campaigning in the Ilkley sun


Exactly two weeks until polling day now and yesterday, like most days of the campaign so far, it was nice to get out and about in Ilkley.

Yesterday afternoon I was very pleased to be joined, not only a number of local activists including well-known Ilkley Conservative Councillor Anne Hawkesworth, but also by several members of the national Conservative Party board.

As ever, the response on the doorstep from Ilkley residents was warm.

It was then on to Christchurch in the centre of town for the latest in a series of hustings across the constituency.

Very well organised by Churches Together in Ilkley, it was informative, lively and an excellent example of democracy in action - and quite right too.
